It was a early/mid 90’s game for up to seven/eight people. It cost a dollar. You had to enter a large, enclosure built for the game. IIRC there were three rear projection screensside by side to form the display. The gameplay was the same everytime(on a rail). It was basically the 7 of you attacking waves of spacefighters until you came to the capital ship which you had to destroy. Never got to the end though.

I remember the game you’re talking about, but don’t remember the name. That thing had of come from around 93 or so as I remember playing it in London. It was way too much to play so I didn’t more then a handful of times.
